Get More Usable Power with Autoranging Power Supply

Get More Usable Power with Autoranging Power Supply

Programmable DC power sources are an essential tool in product development and production testing of a wide range of electronic devices and systems. In many instances, functional test requires submitting the device-under-test (DUT) to a wide range of operating conditions. In some cases, the DUT draws constant power under variable input conditions. Common examples are DC motor drives and regulated DC/DC supplies. In such circumstances, the ability of the programmable DC source to provide more current at reduced output voltage is valuable. We refer to this ability as “autoranging.” DC supplies without autoranging often require users to use multiple supplies to test the DUT under varying input voltage conditions.

Measuring IoT Battery Life with Test Software and Hardware

Measuring IoT Battery Life with Test Software and Hardware

Battery life contributes to the cost and reliability of IoT-based infrastructure, including 5G, IoT connected factories, IoT security, smart farming, and connected healthcare systems, and more. Battery life can also be a key purchasing factor for consumer electronic IoT devices. Because of these factors, designers must understand power consumption patterns and whether devices meet battery life requirements. In this white paper, learn how to overcome this challenge by gaining critical insights into battery run-down to predict battery life accurately.

Optimize Power Source Integrity Under Large Load Transients

Optimize Power Source Integrity Under Large Load Transients

Today’s integrated circuits are operating faster than ever. The increased operating speed can lead to highly dynamic power demand from the power supply, which poses a challenge during testing when you source power using programmable power supplies. The high-speed current waveforms can lead to voltage drops at the integrated circuit. If it is severe enough, the voltage drop can reset the microprocessor or cause anomalies in your test results. This application note explains why this voltage drop occurs and offers several ways to achieve the lowest possible voltage drop by selecting optimal load leads and power supplies and using local bypassing.

Three Tips to Optimize a Device’s Battery Life

Three Tips to Optimize a Device’s Battery Life

As more portable electronic devices with multiple features hit the market, battery run time becomes critical for product differentiation and customer satisfaction. Consumers frequently expect long battery life for their applications and devices. Long battery life is a major differentiator in consumer buying decisions. Devices with unexpectedly short battery life can damage a company’s brand, lead to decreased sales, and even cause a costly recall. And while batteries are inexpensive, replacing them is not. Replacing batteries often costs more than the mobile device. This white paper provides tips for maximizing the battery life of your smartphone or mobile device.
